Subject: powerpc/mm: Flush radix process translations when setting MMU type

From: Alexey Kardashevskiy <[email protected]>

commit 62e984ddfd6b056d399e24113f5e6a7145e579d8 upstream.

Radix guests do normally invalidate process-scoped translations when a new pid is allocated but migrated guests do not invalidate these so migrated guests crash sometime, especially easy to reproduce with migration happening within first 10 seconds after the guest boot start on the same machine.

This adds the "Invalidate process-scoped translations" flush to fix radix guests migration.
